Call to Worship: Zechariah 3: 6

Here is a responsive call to worship inspired by Zechariah 3:6.  It was written by Ruth Burgess.

Call to Worship
(inspired by Zechariah 3:6)

Not by might, nor by power,
but by my spirit, says the LORD of hosts. Zechariah 3:6

As farmers wait for rainfall
As prisoners wait for freedom
We wait for the coming of God

As exiles yearn for home
As peacemakers yearn for justice
We long for the coming of God

As travelers search for shelter
As disciples look for answers
We prepare for the coming of God
